21、 Yunqing was 27 when he took the first photo while his daughter Hua Hua was just a one-year-old. At first, he didn't have any plans to make this into a tradition. But all of that changed when he actually saw the first photo and absolutely loved it.
“I didn't have any thought of doing the same thing again but when I got the photo back, I liked it so much that when we went back the next year I repeated it.”he explained.
“After that, it became sort of the family tradition and we did it every year for 40 years with only one break in 1998 when my daughter did not join us for the family holiday and was abroad,” Yunqing pointed out that there was a small gap in the photos.
Things changed quite a lot over the years. His daughter grew up into a beautiful woman and started a family of her own and that meant Yunqing became a grandpa. Hua Hua's first daughter was born in 2008 while her second daughter came into this world in 2012.
“When I started, I never guessed that I'd still be doing this when I was in my 60s and my daughter is now no longer alone, she is a mother-of-two,” he said, adding that he was pleasantly surprised by the positive reactions to the family photos online, even though he didn't expect to continue the tradition forever.
According to Lenore, an expert, traditions help families understand who they are. “We are the family that always sings this particular song, makes this particular food, gathers for this particular event, or even honors our elders－dead or alive－in this particular way. Just as religions have special holidays, activities, do’s and don'ts, so do families and they serve a similar purpose: defining and binding a group by what they share.”
【1】How many photos did Yunqing take with his daughter?
A．40.
B．39.
C．60.
D．21.
【2】What did Yunqing think of the tradition?
A．He would go on taking photos.
B．He would teach others to go on it.
C．He would never put the photos online.
D．He didn’t expect to take photos with his daughter for so many years.
【3】What is Lenore's attitude to the action?
A．Opposed.
B．Doubtful.
C．Supportive.
D．Disappointed.
【4】What is the best title for the text?
A．Yunqing's Story
B．Why Family Tradition is So Important
C．How to Keep a Tradition for Forty Years
D．Dad and Daughter: The Same Photo Location, Different Years
22、Several years ago, KenKeegan organized a gathering in Las Vegas, with a group of architects involved, who were asked what it would take to design a public school which used 50 percent less energy, cost much less to build and obviously improved students learning. “I think half of them fell off their chairs,” Keegan says.
Keegan is in charge of the management school facilities for Clark County, Nevada, a district roughly the size of Massachusetts. By 2028, 143,000 additional students will enter the already crowded public-education system. Keegan needs 73 new schools to house them. Four architecture teams have nearly finished designing primary school prototypes. With the intention of constructing their schools in 2019, the district will assess how well the schools perform before allowing the winners to conduct their designs in 50 to 70 new buildings.
Green schools keep emerging all over, but in Clark County, which stands out for its vastness, such aggressive targets are difficult because design requirements like more natural light for students go against the realities of a desert climate. “One of the biggest obstacles is getting the right site orientation,” Mark. Mc, a director at SH Architecture, says. His team recently completed a high school in Las Vegas. “You have the same building, same set of windows, but if its orientation is incorrect and it faces the sun, it will be really expensive to cool.”
Surprisingly, the man responsible for one of the most progressive green-design competitions has doubts about ideas of eco-friendly buildings. “I don’t believe in the new green religion,” Keegan says, “Some of the building technologies that you put forward are impractical. I’m only interested in those that work.” But he doesn’t mind if some green features inspire students. He says he hopes to set up green energy systems that allow them to learn about the process of harvesting wind and solar power. “You never know what’s going to start the interest of a child to study math and science,” he says.
【1】What can be inferred from the architects’ reaction in Paragraph 1?
A．Half of them lost balance in excitement.
B．Disbelief was obviously seen.
C．Most of them expressed little interest.
D．They burst into cheers.
【2】Which order of steps should be followed in carrying out the project?
A．Assessment－Construction－Design.
B．Assessment－Design－Construction.
C．Design－Construction－Assessment.
D．Design－Assessment－Construction.
【3】What is the biggest challenge Clark County faces if they are to build green schools?
A．The large size.
B．Limited facilities.
C．The desert climate.
D．Poor natural resources.
【4】In Keegan’s opinion, the ideas of green schools are .
A．questionable
B．out of date
C．advanced
D．practical.
23、Does happiness have a scent?
When someone is happy, can you smell it?
You can usually tell when someone is happy based on seeing them smile, hearing them laugh or perhaps from receiving a big hug. But can you also smell their happiness? Surprising new research suggests that happiness does indeed have a scent, and that the experience of happiness can be transmitted through smell, reports Phys.org.
For the study, 12 young men were shown videos meant to bring about a variety of emotions while researchers gathered sweat samples from them. All of the men were healthy and none of them were drug users or smokers, and all were asked to abstain from drinking or eating smelly foods during the study period.
Those sweat samples were then given to 36 equally healthy young women to smell, while researchers monitored their reactions. Only women were selected to smell the samples, apparently because previous research has shown that women have a better sense of smell than men and are also more sensitive to emotional signaling—though it's unclear why only men were chosen to produce the scents.
Researchers found that the behavior of the women after smelling the scents—particularly their facial expressions—indicated a relationship between the emotional states of the men who produced the sweat and the women who sniffed them.
“Human sweat produced when a person is happy brings about a state similar to happiness in somebody who breathes this smell,” said study co-author Gun Semin, a professor at Koc University in Turkey.
This is a fascinating finding because it not only means that happiness does have a scent, but that the scent is capable of transmitting the emotion to others. The study also found that other emotions, such as fear, seem to carry a scent too. This ensures previous research suggesting that some negative emotions have a smell, but it is the first time this has proved to be true of positive feelings.
Researchers have yet to isolate(分离) exactly what the chemical compound for the happiness smell is, but you might imagine what the potential applications for such a finding could be. Happiness perfumes, for instance, could be invented. Scent therapies（香味疗法）could also be developed to help people through depression or anxiety.
Perhaps the most surprising result of the study, however, is our broadened understanding of how emotions get communicated, and also how our own emotions are potentially managed through our social context and the emotional states of those around us.
【1】What is the main finding of the new research?
A. Pleasant feelings can be smelt out.
B. Negative emotions have a smell.
C. Men produce more sweats.
D. Women have a better sense of smell.
【2】The underlined part “abstain from” in Paragraph 3 probably means _________.
A. continue B. practice C. avoid D. try
【3】What is the application value of the new research?
A. Perfumes could help people understand each other.
B. Some smells could be created to improve our appearance.
C. Perfumes could be produced to cure physical diseases.
D. Some smells could be developed to better our mood.
【4】We can learn from the last paragraph that .
A. happiness comes from a scent of sweat
B. social surroundings can influence our emotions
C. people need more emotional communication
D. positive energy can deepen understanding
24、 A shark moving around the coastline is normally a worrying sight，but this waterborne drone(无人机)threatens floating rubbish instead of people.
Developed by Dutch company RanMarine, the WasteShark takes nature as its inspiration with its whale shark-like mouth. Responsible for collecting waste, the drone will begin operations in Dubai Marina in November after a year of trials with local partner Ecocoast.
According to RanMarine, the WasteShark is available in both autonomous and remote-controlled models. Measuring just over five feet by three-and-a-half feet(1.5 meters by 1.1 meter)，it can carry up to 352 pounds of rubbish(159.6 kg)and has an operational battery life of 16 hours.
By 2016 there were approximately 150 million tons of plastic in the world's oceans. One paper from December 2014 estimated that over a quarter of a million tons of ocean plastic pollution was afloat.
"WasteShark also has the abilities to gather air and water quality data, remove chemicals out of the water such as oil，and heavy metals，and scan the seabed to read its depth and outlines，"said Oliver Cunningham, one of the co-founders of RanMarine. "Fitted with a collision-avoidance system, the drone uses laser imaging detection and ranging technology to detect an object in its path and stop or back up if the object approaches."
"Our drones are designed to move through a water system, whether it's around the perimeter(周边) or through the city itself. The drones are that last line of defense between the city and the open ocean," added Cunningham. "WasteSharks are operating in Dubai, South Africa and the Netherlands and cost $ 17,000 for the remote-controlled model and just under $ 23,000 for the autonomous model."
Dubai-based operator Ecocoast has two WasteShark drones. Co-founder Dana Liparts says they will clean waterfronts for clients including hotels and environmental authorities and that Ecocoast' intention is to have the collected rubbish recycled or upcycled. However, Liparts argues that cleaning waterways doesn't have a one-size-fits-all solution and requires a combination of new technology, preventative measures and changing people's attitudes towards littering.
【1】What do we know about the WasteShark?
A. It can frighten sharks away. B. It is an ocean explorer.
C. It is a rubbish collector. D. It can catch fish instead of people.
【2】What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us?
A. The causes of ocean pollution. B. The dangers of using plastics.
C. The severity of ocean garbage pollution. D. The importance of ocean protection.
【3】What will the WasteShark do with an approaching object?
A. Avoid crashing into it. B. Break it into pieces.
C. Swallow it. D. Fly over it.
【4】Which of the following ideas does Liparts agree with?
A. The WasteShark should be used more widely.
B. More measures should be taken to make water clean.
C. The production cost of WasteSharks should be reduced.
D. People should take a positive attitude to new technology.
25、 During the winter vacation,I was involved in an image-processing project. My task was to extract（提取）the shape of every cell from a(n)__ of microscope images. It seemed quite straightforward at first,but it turned out to be __.
Since I did not have any experience in image processing,I studied some basic ___on my own and started to use a very popular function library(函数库）called OpenCV. As the time was __,I just learnt to apply techniques without going into the mathematical rationale(原理）。As a result,I didn't complete the task in an efficient way and____lots of time.
Through this project,I got a good __ of the importance of studying the basic knowledge. I will probably ___to spend more time studying the theory before I ___another project. By learning their underlying mechanisms(机制），I will be able to ___the tools to suit my own needs. In this way,1 may achieve___ results.
Another challenge I met was about the brightness setting. When I sketched(勾勒）the __ of the cell by the computer,I first set the brightness value to 50,___that the computer could delete the dark places and extract the shape of the cell___. But it turned out that the standard didn't fit for every image. So 1____the brightness value to 30,but that didn't __ either. It was very hard to find a value that worked for all ____
From this,I began to appreciate human eyes. Our eyes ___the amount of light entering them automatically through a feedback system to achieve the best image representation,but computers are not that __. There is still so much that we don't know about the human body.
